Pros

Non-existent, unsafe work conditions.

Cons

To compensate for a terrible fiscal year management blamed the employees. Forced to use up vacation and PTO, some were asked to resign.

Pros

Pay is ok if you negotiate high pay when starting, manical focus on safety

Cons

Hmm... where to start... Virtually NO training for vital tasks such as using the extremely complicated and cumbersome LIMS, focus on hours worked, not quality or amount of work produced, benefits are not very good and getting much more expensive, entrenched bureaucracy of long-time employees with little to no exposure to other companies, lab director allows managers to run their departments wildly differently, seasonal work means forced use of vacation time during winter paid if you want your full paycheck.

Pros

Flexibility in hours is the best thing. Nobody has a set schedule. Show up when you want and leave when you want. There are not very high expectations so an apparent relaxed environment.

Cons

No training on chemistry performed or appropriate safety. Skills needed are never trained, but must be acquired from outside by hiring someone else. Turnover on the entry level is very high due to a long entrenched management team that is way over payed.
